South Iceland Winter Break
Much of Iceland’s most spectacular scenery can be found in the south. Explore volcanoes, glaciers and hot springs, as well as the old town and harbour in Reykjavik, before heading into the hills to spot the Northern Lights. The south of Iceland has perhaps more natural wonders than anywhere else in the world. Bleak but beautiful, our guided excursions will introduce you to the 20m high explosions of Strokkur geyser and the thundering waterfall at Gullfoss.
In Þingvellir National Park you’ll be able to watch continental plates drifting apart over a landscape of lava fields buried in snow. We also have the perfect escape from the snow and ice. Take a dip in the geothermal waters over at the Blue Lagoon. See the famous Hallgrímskirkja church or just explore Reykjavik, a city that manages to mix stylish Nordic confidence with intimate Icelandic friendliness. By night, escape the bright lights and join a trip deep into the surrounding countryside to see the Northern Lights.
This short break is based on spending 4 nights at Hotel Cabin in Reykjavík but there are plenty of other alternative hotel options to meet every taste including:
Speak to one of our Iceland Specialists to choose your hotel.
